Not exactly sure what you mean by (b). I assume if you are running a pretty standard web site that is accessed at all hours from over the world, you would have to pay for every hour 24/7. A better model would be just to pay for CPU hours, that way if you do nothing, you pay nothing, the more you do the the more you pay.
